3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 TheJester (1230) - Peterborough, Ontario, CANADA - NOV 14, 2009
330 mL bottle. Very, very nice colour - copper, which almost looks purple in a certain light. Can’t give it a 5 though, ’cause the head disappeared quite rapidly. Aroma is mild and on the sweet side, with fruit, tea, and a bit of spice. Flavour is good: spice, honey, caramel, and some fruit and anise near the end. Decent bitterness in the finish, some of which may be from the alcohol. Not as full as it could be. Not bad.

Bottle from Utobeer. It pours reddish brown with a thick beige head. The nose is sweet dark fruits: date, fig, raisin, plum, blackberry and caramel and cocoa. The taste is wood, dark fruits, caramel, nut, guava, burnt toast and Pepsi! The mouth-feel is sticky and the finish lightly bitter. Overall the smell is pretty good, but the taste just doesn’t deliver.
